But after much debate, she's setting the record straight on Taylor's part in the single.

隨著各方眾說紛紜，她終於出面說清楚泰勒絲與這支單曲到底有沒有關係。

The daisy sweater, the cryptic tweets, everything just seemed to perfectly add up to the idea that Taylor Swift would be collaborating with Katy Perry on her new single "Daisies."

雛菊毛衣、含義隱晦的推文，各種跡象都顯示泰勒絲會在凱蒂佩芮的新單曲「Daisies」中出現。

But after days of speculation and what felt like hint after hint that Katy would be featuring Taylor on the song, she's officially set the record straight.

經過多日的猜測，看過無數個暗示說凱蒂佩芮將會和泰勒絲合作，現在她終於出來說清楚了。

Leading up to the song's release, fans freaked out when Katy shared the news that "Daisies" would be her next single, and within hours, Taylor shared this photo of herself wearing a daisy sweater.

在歌曲發布之前，凱蒂分享了她新單曲會是「Daisies」，粉絲都陷入瘋狂了，而數小時後，泰勒絲發了一張她穿雛菊毛衣的照片。

It was hardly a coincidence and a cryptic move that Taylor would definitely pull, and after many other clues hidden throughout the week, fans were convinced.

這感覺不太像是巧合，且泰勒絲很愛用這種明示暗示的手法，當週出現許多線索讓粉絲更加確信了他們會合作。

The official American Idol account tweeted that they'd be listening to "Daisies" a total of 1,989 times.

美國偶像官方帳號發了一個推文，說他們會聽「Daisies」1,989 次。

And she even teased that we'd have to wait and see if the rumors were true come the American Idol finale.

她甚至笑弄著說，如果想知道謠言是否屬實，就要看美國偶像的最終集。

Well, you are just gonna have to tune in American Idol next week to see all rumors true or false.

這個嘛，你們就只能下週準時收看美國偶像，來看看這些謠言是不是真的。

The Easter eggs were basically handed to us on a silver platter, so naturally, fans took the idea and ran with it.

這個彩蛋根本就是直接擺在盤子上給大家看，所以粉絲也欣然認為他們是對的。

Fast forward to today when "Daisies" officially debuted and fans were disappointed to see zero mention of Taylor in any of Katy's announcements.

快轉到今天，「Daisies」正式發佈，而粉絲非常失望，因為凱蒂佩芮在宣布中完全沒有提到泰勒絲。

But, many Swifties and Katy Cats, who had already listened to the song on repeat throughout the entire morning swore they could hear a second set of vocals in the chorus of the song.

然而，許多泰勒絲與凱蒂佩芮的粉絲整個早上都在重複聽這首歌，而他們發誓在副歌裡聽到第二個人聲。

When you listen very closely, there does seem to be a second set of vocals.

當你非常仔細聽，似乎真的會聽到第二組聲音。

But it seems fans wanted this to come to fruition so bad, that they convinced themselves Taylor is definitely singing with Katy on the track.

但粉絲似乎非常想要這件事成真，他們甚至說服自己說泰勒絲一定和凱蒂佩芮在背景一起唱歌。

One user took to Twitter to write, "I swear I hear Taylors voice in that chorus, I'm not cray it's like blended with Katy's voice."

其中一人在推特上寫說「我發誓在副歌聽到泰勒絲的聲音，我沒有發瘋！她們的聲音聽起來有點混在一起。」

Another fan wrote, "I heard Taylor's voice here."

另一個粉絲寫：「我在這裡聽到泰勒絲的聲音。」

Katy is on chorus.

凱蒂佩芮在唱副歌。

I hope I'm not mistaken. But I really do.

我希望我沒聽錯，因為我真的聽到了。

Listen very well. I knew it's taylor.

聽得很清楚，我知道那是泰勒絲。

Until today, the only mention of the writing process Katy shared was on her Instagram post.

直到現在，關於這首歌的寫作過程，凱蒂佩芮只有在 IG 上提過一次。

Writing: "I wrote this song a couple months ago as a call to remain true to the course you've set for yourself, regardless of what others may think."

她寫道：「我幾個月前寫下了這首歌，呼籲大家要保持真我，不要去管其他人的想法。」

She went on to say: "Recently, it has taken a new meaning for me, in light of what the whole world is experiencing."

她繼續：「鑑於最近全世界的情況，這首歌對我而言有了新的意義，。」

But during a new interview with Hits Radio Breakfast released this morning, Katy confirmed fans' biggest fear in that Taylor is not at all featured on the track.

但在今天早上的 Hits Radio Breakfast 節目上，凱蒂佩芮確認說泰勒絲和這首歌一點關係也沒有。

Taylor Swift appears on this new song, Katy?

凱蒂佩芮，泰勒絲有在這首新歌裡面嗎？

Oh Matt you cheeky devil—no, it's not correct.

噢，你這奸詐的小惡魔，不，並沒有。

But the fans are definitely excited for something like that to happen in the future.

但粉絲一定對於未來可能發生的這種事感到興奮。

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it's just not happening this time.

我不想當帶來壞消息的人，但這次就是沒有好消息。

But when one of the hosts asked whether Taylor could be featured on another song on the album, Katy simply laughed and replied by saying,"no, not as yet!”

當其他一名主持人問說，泰勒絲是否可能出現在專輯的其他歌裡面，凱蒂佩芮笑了笑，說「不會啦。」

She did credit the fans for being so "fun" and digging for clues since she first announced the single.

她也不忘讚美那些粉絲很有趣，在歌曲一發佈就開始找彩蛋。

Adding: "They do search far and wide for Easter eggs."

她說：「他們找彩蛋的確找得很用心。」

And we do put them in our visuals and in lyric videos and music videos and content that we created.

我們在視覺、歌詞影片、歌曲影片與創作的內容中都有加入彩蛋。

But Katy was quick to note that, "Not everything is an Easter egg."

但凱蒂也很快地就補充說「但不是所有東西都是彩蛋。」

Some things are just flowers.

有些事物就只是花兒。

Call me crazy, but for some reason I'm still just not fully convinced…

就說我瘋了吧，但不知怎麼地，我就是沒有被說服。

Thankfully I'm not the only one, because fans have already chimed in on Katy's interview, writing comments like, "Why do I feel like she's lying?"

幸好不只我這麼想，因為許多粉絲在凱蒂的訪談下留言：「為什麼我覺得她在說謊？」

And "A remix could still happen."

跟「也可能出混音版的啊。」

But while we wait for some sort of magic to happen, let's show Katy some love and stream her new single "Daisies," out everywhere now!

在我們期盼魔法發生的時候，讓我們給凱蒂佩芮看看我們的愛，並多聽幾次她的新單曲「Daisies」吧！
